Infrastructure BC has released its Spring 2024 BC Major Infrastructure Projects Brochure. This brochure showcases the public projects planned or underway in B.C., with a value of more than $50 million each. These projects range from early planning to pre-procurement and active procurement stages.
“At a time when B.C.’s construction needs are great, the ability to access high-quality, transparent project information is key to helping general and trade contractors plan and understand the direction of the market both locally and across the province,” says Chris Atchison, president of the BC Construction Association.
By publishing this brochure each spring and fall, Infrastructure BC aims to inform and engage the industry, contractors, subcontractors, and market participants about the upcoming opportunities.
“As part of our role in supporting the province and the industry in dealing with market dynamic challenges, Infrastructure BC will continue to examine and implement innovative procurement models, such as Progressive Design-Build, Alliance, and Target Price Contracts,” said Mark Liedemann, Infrastructure BC president and CEO.
Procurement models for current projects in the market include Alliance (Burnaby Hospital Phase 2 and BC Cancer Centre), Design-Build (Belleville Terminal Replacement, Highway 1 – 264th Street Interchange Project, Jumping Creek to MacDonald Snowshed, and the Kamloops Cancer Centre), and Progressive Design-Build with Target Price (Fraser River Tunnel).
Infrastructure BC supports government and project owners in choosing the most suitable delivery model to build complex projects such as highways, bridges, schools, and hospitals.
The BC Major Infrastructure Projects Brochure can be accessed online at InfrastructureBC.com. The Spring 2024 brochure includes projects from the province of B.C., Metro Vancouver, BC Hydro, Capital Regional District, TransLink, and Vancouver Fraser Port Authority.
